The Reverend Edward Ray Cudjoe Odame, General Overseer of the King’s Church, Ghana, has called on Ghanaians to act together to fight corruption and other social evils that impede socio-economic progress.
He said they should have the courage to expose offenders and bring them to justice.
The Rev Odame was delivering the sermon at a service to bring the curtain down on a 30-day fasting and prayer session organised by the Church at Suntreso in Kumasi.
It was under the theme: “God is Able” and formed part of the Silver Jubilee celebration of the Church.
The Rev Odame said it was important for all to accept to live within the law and put the nation ahead of individual comfort and selfish interest.
He added that it should not be lost on the people that everybody had a part to play to put the nation on the path of real economic growth and prosperity.
He also reminded them to have more faith God in the face of growing economic difficulties, saying they should have trust Christ’s abundant mercy.
The Rev Odame also urged Christians to work hard to spread the Gospel to help to transform people in the society.
He said they should become good examples to the rest of the population by upholding the values of self-discipline, decency and integrity.
Special prayers were said for the peace, stability and development of the nation.
